LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES JULY 2, 1985 PAGE 5 The City Engineer referred to his memo of June 27, 1985 in which he ( states that Citadel Homes proposes to construct a single family home on the above lot. Since this area is within 1,000 feet of Down's Lake, Shoreland Regulations apply. He further stated that lots within Eden Park 2nd Addition require some background information regarding application of the Shoreland Ordinance. At the time the plat was approved, the flood elevation was set sat 891, assuming the VBWD would follow its overall plan to divert water from Down's Lake to Lake Elmo. Since it is likely this will not occur the flood level was raised to 894 in the Shoreland Ordinance. This difference greatly affects buildability of lots within Eden park 2nd Addition. If this application would be approved, variances for lot size, structure setback from the water, and basement elevation would be required. Variances for lot size, building elevation and building setback are reasonable and consisstent with past Council action with other lots in Eden Park 2nd Addition. The Engineer feels tat it would be appropriate to grant these variances since the applicant has chosen the best site for the house and septic system available on the lot. The approval should be conditioned on the recommended septic system design. M/S/P Dunn/Armstrong - To grant a shoreland permit to Roger Colombo/Citadel Homes on Lot 9, Block 1 Eden park 2nd Addition for the construction of a home contingent upon the applicant complying with the recommendations of the City Engineer in his memo of June 27, 1985. (Motion carried 5-0). E. Shoreland Permit - Daniel Lindstrom, 7959 Hill Trail North Mr. Lindstrom proposes to remove an existing garage and construct a. new attached tuck under garage with living room above. Since this lot is within 1,000 feet of Lake Olson, shoreland regulations apply. No variances are required for this work. This lot is included in the 201 Septic System Progra, but since no bedrooms are being added, no changes to the septic system design are required. The City Engineer recommended that the Shoreland Permit be granted. M/S/P Christ/Mazzara - to grant a shoreland permit to Daniel Lindstrom, 7959 Hill Trail North. (Motion carried 5-0). F. Variance Requests - Bill Eder (continued) The original proposal came up in April which was a request for a simple lot subdivision to create two lots and since one was going to be less than a acre and a half a lot size variance would have been required. Mr. Bill Eder now owns the Shultz property which had divided the property owned by Willard Eder and now the lot size variance is no longer required. The road frontage variances and some kind of private road agreement are still required. The City Engineer pointed out now that the subdivision is allowed with these variances, and he assumes that Mr. Eder will be going through
